Fix It, Build It, Learn It—DIY For Grown-Ass Adults
This site is not for children or adults who behave and think like one. This is mainly a gateway drug to DIY videos made by a vulgar guru who likes to learn, built, fix, and teach those who want to watch an uncertified wizard pound his way through to a fully functional solution. If you find it funny and want to stick around, links are below. (I may be able to add more platforms as thing evolve.) If it is not to your liking, I have zero fucks to give. Negative comments will be deleted and ignored. Constructive comments will be stuck in a box, doused in whiskey or rum, and read under the influence.
Read the Bio (below) for more info, make a post, ask a question, or just jump into the pool of shits, fucks, and damns while you learn about everything from soldering copper pipes and PCB to woodworking to 3D printing to who knows what I’ll do next. Live chats and live streams might be coming, it just depends upon what I can figure out – some of this shit I’m still learning about, haven’t had the interest, and I am still working for a living. No filters, no takebacks, no apologies. Maybe just a green screen to hide the mess in my tiny shop (that too will be changing and shared).
What the hell is he going to do next?

Welcome to The Me Do Institute: Fix It, Build It, Learn It—DIY For Grown-Ass Adults
Hey, I’m Paul Satterlee, and legend has it—per my mom, at least—my first words were “me do.” True or not, I’ve been hooked on figuring shit out ever since. Growing up, I was an information hound, tearing through books, tools, and tech long before the internet was a thing. My transcript? Let’s just say it didn’t capture my brilliance. I’m on the upper end of the “spectrum”—shoutouts to the weirdos and our supporters—and if I’d been born 15 years later, stuck around one place longer than a year, or dodged the California school system, my bus would’ve had way fewer passengers, if you catch my drift. Hell, I would have probably driven it myself.
Anything can be done if you break it into bite-sized chunks. From welding a busted chair to coding a quick app, or even dreaming up a machine to fold my laundry (still in beta), I believe anyone with the right knowledge and a kick of stubbornness can tackle anything. The Me Do Institute is about solving problems—common, weird, or downright wild—with clear, step-by-step grit. I’m not some polished expert with a wall of certifications; I’m certified in minimal sanity, maximum tinkering, and decades of “me do” mentality. I’ll reverse-engineer, tweak, and fix shit, and it’ll work—maybe not the pro way, but it’ll get you there cheaper and with a smirk.
This ain’t for kids or adults who think like ‘em. If a well-timed “damn,” “shit,” or “fuck” sends you running, find a cozy closet in California to hide in. I’m not here for fame or fortune—I’ve had my fill. I’m here to share what I’ve learned, solve real problems, and maybe down a rum and Coke while we’re at it. Got a project you’re stuck on? Throw it my way. I might tackle it in a video, a livestream, or a chat if we get that going. No set schedule—life and the workshop don’t always play nice.
So, welcome to The Me Do Institute. Let’s roll up our sleeves and learn something worth knowing. – Paul Satterlee
